Effectiveness and safety of novel motorized spiral enteroscopy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Surgical endoscopy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundMotorized spiral enteroscopy (MSE) is a novel advance in small bowel examination that is characterized as fast with a deep insertion. The aim of this study was to elucidate the effectiveness and safety of MSE.
methodsRelevant articles that were published before November 1, 2022 were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and the Web of Science. The technical success rate (TSR), total (pan)-enteroscopy rate (TER), depth of maximum insertion (DMI), diagnostic yield, and adverse events were extracted and analyzed. Forest plots were graphed based on random effects models.
resultsA total of 876 patients from 8 studies were eligible for analysis. The pooled results of the TSR were 95.0% [95% confidence interval (CI) 91.0-98.0%, I
conclusionMSE is a novel alternative approach for small bowel examination that can achieve high TER and diagnostic and therapeutic yields, and relatively low rates of severe adverse events. Head-to-head studies comparing MSE and other device-assisted enteroscopies are warranted.
